The shelters do kick people out when they abuse the rules(open drug use and fighting). Most prefer to sleep in a tent or in an encampment unless the weather is extreme. I know John 3:16 in Tulsa allows those willing to enter into their program which is very strict but allows the homeless a chance to become "students" in a tiered system promoting a drug-free lifestyle and helping the jobless find work while living in the shelter. Most "students" are kicked out or leave, but a few are rehabilitated and go on to live normal lives.</blockquote>
